Lobstermen Truck Series -George Hardy

Here is George Hardy and his GMC pick up.

George went the plywood bedliner route. Here he unloads traps from the truck to load onto the boat and later set.

It’s that time of year. Trap setting time!

Major Upgrade at Charlie’s Place

Copper flashing and what looks to be slate tiled roofing.

If it isn’t real slate, they sure fooled me, it looks great regardless.

Some very nice touches compared to the old building.

Two thumbs up.

Charlie’s Place Close to Re-Opening

Sign says they are close to re-opening.

They sure did a nice job with the building.

Rosa Rugosa Report- Good Harbor

Rosa Rugosa Report- Good Harbor, originally uploaded by captjoe06.

The Rosa Rugosa that lines the shore road by the footbridge at Good Harbor Beach is starting to sprout it’s foliage.

It is quite a contrast between the bright green oily foliage and the thorny dry stems that support them.

It won’t be long before they are covered with green and the beautiful roses appear.

I’ll be documenting this particular bush’s development this year from dormant through the foliage, flowering, and then the fruit bearing stage.

East Gloucester Marine Construction Update 4/26/08

Looks like they are tying the deck into the mainland with rebar.  Close to being done on this advanced engineered pier.  The people that poured the concrete told Manuel who is a dock manager there that he has never poured concrete on a pier engineered to such high standards.
